American consul at Nagasaki, Japan, spent Tuesday in Lincoln, visit ing his aunt, Mrs. Sarah F. Harris. Since Mr. Harris' appointment, the war in the Filipinee has occurred. All the transports Btop at Nagasaki and the American consul's place is far from being a sinecure. A year or two ago some lecturer in Lincoln, perhaps it was Colonel Denby or it may have been President Schuerman, told a story about the American consul at Nagasaki quelling a mutiny on board a ship which had put in there. The lecturer said that the consul took the leader by the coat-collar and threw him into the water. What really happened, the captain of the ship sent for Mr. Harris, who went immediately down to the pier. As he stepped on board he was intercepted by a drunken sailor who said, "I understand you have come down here to talk with me." The con sul looked at him and replied: "I shall have a few words to say to you when you are sober.'' The crew standing about, listening, cheered the consul and laughed at the sailor and the mutiny was over. The captain told Mr. Harris that he was afraid to go to sea with the crew. The Consul told him in Amer ican, to a,go ahead, it is all right, you will have no trouble." The captain took the advice, sailed, and had no trouble on the voj age with his crew. Mr. Harris will return in a few weeks to his duties in Nagasaki. Sorosis held an enjoyable meeting on Tuesday at the home of Mrs. A. S. Tib bets.
